and still the patient does not feel entirely

his hands. Soon after this cough appears.

are no cayaties nor tubercles in the lungs,
but merely wasting away OF the larger

In THE BUSHES.
A BOY Lying I'm wait to Murder
His Father.

HIS FatneTs
A telephone communication was re-
ce;ved at the police station last evening,
stating that family row was in progress
in East Los Angeles. Officer Jackson
was dispatched to the scene of the
trouble, which proved to be on kuhrts
street, near Water. In the back yard
of the place be found boy about Is
years of age concealed in the bushes.
The officer approached the boy. who
proved to be laboring under great ex-
element.
.What are you doing here?" asked the
guardian of the peace.
81 am wanting for my father until ne
gets asleep so that l can kill him, re-
piled the lad.
The officer jumped from his horse and
searched him but found no weapon con-
cealed upon his person.
sWhat are you going to kill him
WITH" asked jackson.
.sWith hatchet or hammer, don't
care which," responded the youthful
desperate.
The officer went into the house and
saw the parents. He learned that in the
morning the boy had stolen fifty cents
from his mother for which offense
the father chastised him with lath. As
soon as the father finished whipping him
the boy struck the father several times
and with a parting admonition that he
would kill him before daylight, walked
out. He was seen lurking around the
bushes, and his mother, knowing his ma.
ture and fearing that he would carry
out his threat, sent for the police. The
boy is little out of his head and is con-
sidered to be dangerous. Some months
ago he attempted to take his fathers
life, but was unsuccessful.
At the prison the boy corroborated
the story of the officer. He was
charged with disorderly conduct in order
to hold him, and when the case is more
fully investigated to-day be will either
be booked on graver charge or sent to
the lunatic asylum.
